How women weep

What horrible sindid woman committo be treated for centuries as slaves, slut, like shit?!

They carry life within and give birth to life in such painthey provide food and shelter, day after day. Clean, cook, nurse and feed, day after day, after day, after day. They calm and caress and send fears away. Away with a smile, a kiss, so they pray!

Women denied, of the right to study, the right to vote, deprived of workdeprived of their human rightsbanned from the heavens, barred illumination.

Girls screaming in dismaywomen sobbing in despair widows weeping in the dark! Hidden because the Cowards can’t stand to see ...what they have done to their mothers, sisters and companions.

Women without identity! Women deprived of healthcare and securitydenied of a place in society aborted before they are born. And deprived of their place, their place in history!!

Women, accused of adultery, when raped Accused… to hide their own men’s sins. Relentlessly raped, bought and soldforced to prostitution and then beaten by law!!

Cowards! Those men that discriminate and the best jobs withhold and disseminate. Cowards! Those many who pay them less so, when women grown old and alonepennies are the pensions they live on!

14 girls burnt in the school because the men refused to save them without scarvesblocking the doors so they couldn’t escapeis this is the fate thatwomen must face?

99 lashes of the whip for Sakinehimprisoned for a confession obtained with torture. 99 more lashes of the whip for a photo she is not in! Detained for endless time without proof of her guilt or the sin she supposedly committed.

200,000 rapes in Walikale, Congo in the last 12 years. 500 women a day, gang raped in front of their familiyby militia searching for gold.

Was the burqua made to hide the endless bruises inflicted? Beatings by fathers, by husbands, by their very owns brothers and sons!

Shame on those men who hide their loved ones. Cowards they hide the mind, they hide the soul!!

Women deprived of their genitalsin brutal, inexplainable rituals... Girls screaming in pain, blood spraying in all directions childreninfibulated by men that rip out their clits thatsew up their lips and tear at the tender tissue between their legs.

Shame on the governments that permit such disgrace!! Cowards who can’t face the woman that made them ! No pleasure for women, no justice, just pain… Forever... deprived... of their natural ecstasy!

And when the woman survives her man at times the widow is thrown in the flamesto burn to a cinder in his funeral pyre!
